Lan Qi served food to Xuan Ye's bowl and smiled: "The emperor has been thinking for a long time and just came up with this sentence to coax me? It's not new, I don't like to hear it."
Xuan Ye scolded: "Why don't you like to hear it?"
She smiled and said: "Thinking about how they looked back then, and looking at the people in front of the door, I should sigh in my heart, 'Sure enough, I'm getting older, I'm really old.' I don't want to be sighed like this by you, and at the same time, I'm still saying it."
I don’t know how to follow Shale.”
"Pretentious." Xuan Ye ignored her and ate the food in the bowl with a good appetite. No more, no less, just right. Lan Qi stopped urging him to eat, and only asked him not to sit down in front of the case to deal with government affairs immediately, and to rest at least.
Take a break.
"Although I am satisfied with everything you do when you come here, you have to take care of everything and I still have to listen." Xuan Ye stretched out his hand lazily, not even bothering to wash his hands, and still said something like this.
Lan Qi helped him wash and dry him, and when the eunuch carrying the basin came down, she gently pushed the emperor and said, "Isn't there someone who went to Yonghe Palace to act coquettishly?"
Xuan Ye glared at her, but with a deep smile on his face, he said happily: "You have to come here every day these days. My daughter should be married immediately. If my waist is not good, how can I straighten it up?
"
Seeing Lan Qi biting her lip and looking at him, Xuan Ye was startled, hugged her and said, "I said the wrong thing again. You are not here to be an imperial doctor. I miss you and want to see you."
Lan Qi pretended to be pitiful and said: "You are really old and young. Now you have to ask for nice words to persuade others so that you can barely listen to them."
The two of them bickered and laughed, and one meal was very digestible. Only when this meal is digested smoothly can one have an appetite for the next meal. The emperor is usually either bored or does not move much after eating, so it is no wonder
It's getting more and more unappetizing.
Lan Qi left Yonghe Palace late in the afternoon when a minister asked for an audience. Xuan Ye took a nap for a quarter of an hour and slept deeply. Lan Qi quietly packed up the pen and ink on his desk. Eunuch Liang was attentive.
He went to the ground to bring tea to Concubine De. Lan Qi ordered him to pack away some things in the room that the emperor had arranged for Wang Changzai. He even ordered: "No more bamboo mats are allowed. There are ice in the room, and the cold is gone."
They gathered together, lying on the warm flesh and blood, sucking the cold air into the body. Not to mention that it is not good for the emperor's health, Wang Chang, a thin woman, cannot stand such a situation."
Liang Gonggong agreed, and before the emperor woke up, he sent people to move some things away quietly. When Xuan Ye got up, he saw something different in the room, and knew what was going on. He didn't ask Lan Qi, just waiting for her to ask for it.
After leaving, he said with a guilty conscience: "It's just because she comes often that I don't let anyone deal with her. Don't get me wrong?"
At that time, Lan Qi just hummed softly: "Your Majesty, just stay here, I can just come and take care of you from time to time."
The two said goodbye happily. The ministers who met in the afternoon felt that the emperor was in high spirits after only half a day. After asking about it, they found out that Concubine De was here to serve him at noon today. As expected, it was very different from the Wang family who had been there frequently in recent days.
.
The ministers all had families and children, experienced love, and were tired of dealing with the jealousy of their wives and concubines. The emperor was so aloof, but he was also a man like them. Listening to the deeds and conduct of Concubine De, one can easily understand why the emperor treated Yonghe
The palace couldn't accommodate her. But just because he was the emperor, and because Concubine De had both sons and daughters, they had to be suspicious of the emperor's love for the Wu Ya family in order to be able to cope with the changes in the royal family at any time.
The next morning, Lan Qi and Concubine Rong drafted a list for this promotion in Jingyang Palace. The Ministry of Internal Affairs sent several titles. Lan Qi and Concubine Rong chose the word "Min" for the title, and waited for Princess Rongxian. When they got married, Zhang promised that Min Chang would be there.
Concubine Rong said with a smile: "When the third and fourth elders get married at the end of the year, I will promote her to the rank of noble. Next year, I will find a way to promote her to the concubine position, and she will be able to raise her own children. I have no hatred for her at all. You two If we can bury the hatchet, I have nothing to worry about."
Lan Qi said: "The emperor did not want her to sit on the throne to raise the princess. He has been raising the princess for half a year now, but he just wants to show some favor. Hasn't he always favored the king these days? I'm afraid She is unhappy in her heart. This is the emperor's wish, and seeing as the emperor still has no control over her position in the future, we don't have to worry about it."
Naturally, these words were perfunctory to Concubine Rong. As for the cause of Concubine Ping's death, only Xuan Ye and Huan Chun knew the truth. Since everyone thought that she and Xing'er had "resolved their old feud", they just let it take its course and she didn't have to go around. to explain something.
At noon, Concubine Rong wisely pushed her to the Qianqing Palace. When she was delivered to the door, she said, "I heard that Mrs. Wang was rude to you yesterday. She knew you were going to the Qianqing Palace, but she went to stab you in the face?"
Lan Qi did not explain to Wang Changzai, but smiled lightly: "Who knows, but she left immediately, so there is nothing unpleasant about it."
Concubine Rong said softly: "The situation in Qixiang Palace is very different now. The concubine actually wants to see her face at every turn. It's like the throne has been changed in Qixiang Palace. This concubine can really do anything at any time. Too much, she used to bully people, now she pleases people, nothing is just right, the honor given to her by the emperor is free. And that Wang family is getting more and more proud, very different from earlier, but I understand her, she was almost tortured As a dead person, what could she be thinking about when she was kneeling outside the gate of Qixiang Palace in the winter? If it were me, I would definitely want to take revenge on my concubine when I make a comeback in the future to relieve the hatred in my heart. This is also human nature."
Lan Qi didn't care. Evil people will be punished by evil people. Xi Concubine and Wang Chang Zai are in love with each other. Although they don't dare to boast about their saintly hearts, when she was tortured by Queen Xiaoyi, she never thought that she would pay back ten times in the future. They are indeed different from others, and he smiled and said: "Let them go."
Afterwards, they went to the Qianqing Palace. Lan Qi didn't want to be too ostentatious, so she didn't prepare any meals today. However, when the emperor looked at the extravagant table of food in the imperial dining room, he was so disinterested that he refused to use his chopsticks, so she had to promise him that he would cook what he likes tomorrow. When he came, he coaxed the grown man to eat some. When it came to serious matters, the emperor said that the word "sensitivity" was very good. He looked at the list of promotions, pointed to An Guiren's name and said: "You want to promote her to be a concubine." Bit?"
"It's Sister Rong's idea. After all, she is someone with seniority in the palace. Sister Rong said that the emperor liked her a lot in the early years." Lan Qi didn't know the situation back then, but she only knew that An Guiren had bullied her a lot, but Since Concubine Rong protects her, she cannot deny it easily. Seeing the emperor frowning at this moment, I guess he is not happy. However, An Gui has been very peaceful and honest these years, and she has no share in the troubles in the palace. No wonder Concubine Rong would think of her.
"Then there is no need to perform the canonization ceremony." Xuan Ye weighed it up and finally agreed.
When Lan Qi was about to leave Qianqing Palace in the afternoon, Xuan Ye said to her: "The Queen has always wanted to see Lan Ying's child. I have ordered someone to send a message this morning, asking Aling'a to send Fujin and the child to the palace tomorrow. You will There is no need to come over, I will go to Ningshou Palace for lunch and meet together there."
When Lan Qi heard that her sister was going to enter the palace, she was naturally overjoyed. She was excited all night. Early the next morning, she ran to Ningshou Palace to wait for her sister. However, after her sister came to the Queen Mother with her child in her arms and saluted, she said: "I want to
Then go to Xianfu Palace to say hello and let the imperial concubine take a look at the child. After all, the imperial concubine is the child's biological aunt."
The Queen Mother sighed that Lan Ying was kind-hearted and agreed without thinking. She was also afraid that the foolish concubine would hurt others, so she ordered Lan Qi to go with her. This also gave the two sisters a chance to be alone. Lan Qi held her in her arms all the way.
The little nephew couldn't put it down and kept chanting: "My mother told me that the child is carved out of the same mold as you when you were a child. I can't remember what you looked like when you were a child, but those eyes and nose really look like our Ama."
Lan Ying smiled: "Everyone in their family said he is just like Aling'a."
Lan Qi looked at her carefully and said, "You have lost a lot of weight, but you are fat. You just have everything and are too lazy to come to the palace to see me."
My sister smiled sweetly: "Sister, having a child is really different. Children are obviously the same, but holding your own flesh and blood in your arms makes you feel really different."
The elder sister laughed at her for making such a fuss and asked casually: "You just come to see the imperial concubine. Why are you holding the child?"
Now approaching Xianfu Palace, Lan Ying took the child from her sister's arms, looked at the palace, and said softly: "If she knew that Aling'a and I had a child, would she feel better and stop being so crazy?
?A good person has ended up like this. Sister, do you think she can still be well in this life?"
According to Lan Ying's wish, she actually hoped that Concubine Wen would regain her consciousness one day. However, when they entered the Xianfu Palace and saw the concubine, they were all shocked. The concubine fell ill for some reason, and the "child" who was still alive and kicking before was
, having been in bed for the past two days, she was very weak. Lan Qi asked Dongyun why she didn't report it, but Dongyun remained silent and did not answer, which made Lan Qi suspicious.
Because the imperial concubine was ill, Lan Ying did not dare to carry the child to the bedside easily. She told the imperial concubine through the window that she and Aling'a had a son. The little boy made a few babbling noises, and sometimes laughed happily, like the sound of nature.
Passing through the door, Lan Qi stood in front of the couch and saw Concubine Wen looking out the window with a curious expression. Tears gradually fell from the corners of her eyes. Dongyun lay beside the bed and told the master that this was her little nephew. Concubine Wen said infatuatedly
I repeated "little nephew" several times and laughed again.
Lan Qi felt very uncomfortable. She thought of her tenth brother who was still being raised in Ningshou Palace. However, the Queen Mother had no intention of letting her tenth brother come into contact with her crazy mother. Lan Qi couldn't open her mouth either, so she could only separate mother and son.
.Fortunately, Lord Jue Chan once comforted her, saying that Concubine Wen really had no feelings for her children. What a pity it was, the tenth prince. It didn’t matter whether Concubine Wen could see her now.
But even though Concubine Wen was crazy, she couldn't tolerate being treated badly. Lan Qi was very concerned about why Dongyun didn't report the concubine's illness. She was just too busy recently and neglected the Xianfu Palace. Something like this happened again, when Concubine Yi was in charge.
It's less than the cost of Xianfu Palace. There may be such a thing now, but Dongyun won't say anything.
That night, Lan Qi summoned Dong Yun to ask her about the details. Her original intention was not to explore any "truth", but she just wanted to know whether the imperial concubine had been bullied recently. She didn't know how to touch Dong Yun's sadness. She stood there.
The man suddenly knelt down and cried: "Do you know why the imperial concubine has dementia?"
